Frico Toast

Directions

1. 1
   Heat a non-stick (seriously) pan or griddle on med-high heat. Take the stick of butter and swipe across the pan/griddle. You want a thin coating of butter. Sprinkle ~1/4 cup of grated cheese onto the buttered pan, roughly in the shape of your bread.
2. 2
   When the heat melts and the fat starts to separate out a litte, place your bread slice on top and press down the bread with a spatula (it helps the cheese adhere to the bread more). Lift a corner to check for golden brown color. Don't worry if the cheese doesn't seem crispy. It will crispy up as the cheese cools.
3. 3
   Take your spatula and lift the bread off the pan/griddle and transfer to a plate or cooling rack, cheese side up. Repeat the butter and cheese process above. Take your previously cooked bread and place the non-cheese side over the cheese, press down, and cook until that side is golden brown. Remove to a warmed plate or a warm oven.
4. 4
   Do it all again with the other slices of bread. Serve with some soup or marinara sauce or as is.
